The impact of mindfulness on stress, depression and anxiety are now well researched, verified and established, what is much less well known, let alone researched is the impact of mindfulness and “extraordinary experiences”.
Extraordinary experiences refer to telepathy, clairvoyance, clairaudience, destruction of “defiling impulses” (destructive tendencies), predictive dreams, healing or spiritual experiences and such like.
Recent research has confirmed significant relationships between PSI and meditation, over 60% of meditators report extra ordinary experiences, about 50% report telepathy or clairvoyance and almost 60% endorsed these events as being meaningful for them.
Of course, this is well known in traditions that have meditation and cultivating states of consciousness as their core practices. Buddhist, Sikh and Yogic teachings all confirm state that a person who attains a higher state of consciousness will manifest psychic powers (siddhis). All meditation traditions state that advanced meditators will exhibit reliable and strong psychic phenomena.
Once again, the Flame Centre for Mindfulness, Holistic health and Wellbeing is pioneering a dedicated space to document, discuss, explore and research extraordinary experiences and meditation with practitioners.
